National Highways have said they're aware of a number of incidents there

A motorist has spoken out against a roundabout in Lancashire which he's called 'an accident blackspot'.

Unfortunately, Barry's new car didn't have a dash cam fitted at that point but states the couple behind him had corroborated his sequence of events and that the lights were on green at the time.
